Chapter Text
Wise and Lycaon meeting was an unexpected event, but definitely not unwanted. With all problems that showed up during that time Cunning Hares needing to go back and join Nicole, mysterious hollows and with whole missing Rain situation Wise can only be thankful for help offered from Victoria Housekeeping. Thanks to them mission ended fast and easy and they not only save Rain, but also airplane in which Cunning Hares were.
Wise during this mission couldn't stop being impressed with how strong and fast Lycaon is, together with his knowledge and fast thinking he truly is a perfect leader.
But this mission soon came to an end and that's why Proxy decided to not got to much attached because who know when will they be able to meet again, if they even meet again that is.
Fortunately some time later they randomly meet in Lumina Square and since then they started seeing each other more often, be it small meetings at Random Play or specially planned one's in city.
With every meeting they were getting closer to each other, their trust was getting stronger to the point that Lycaon after proper preparations allowed Wise to pet his tail whenever Proxy wanted, something that is said to be very private for Thirens and only very close ones to them can do.
That's how after eating out they ended up in quiet place in Lumina Square Park siting on the bench with Wise petting Lycaon tail again. Said Thiren was trying his best to not wave his tail uncontrollably and whack Proxy in the face like last time. Thankfully that didn't hurt gray haired man, but ashamed Lycaon was training hard his self control to not compromise himself again.
"I think that your tail is getting softer each time you let me touch it." Said Wise while petting slowly Lycaon tail.
"I'm glad that you noticed it master Proxy. I used new special oils on my tail, so it got more smooth and fluffy."
"I hope you didn't need to again spent so much time preparing just for me."
"It's natural that I want my master to get the best out of best there can be. That's why time is not important when it comes to my dear master geting experience that is of the highest quality."
"I see, as always it's very considerable from you. Thank you Lycaon."
"That's nothing to thank me, I'm glad that you're enjoying your time."
No matter what and where, they always have a lot of fun during their meetings. With Wise planing for them nice meeting places and activities and with Lycaon always being prepared perfectly for any occasion, that always guaranteed great time for them.
They just ended up yet another movie that Wise chose to watch during their movie marathon, that they planned some time ago for their free day. Lycaon specially bought some of the best snacks and drinks and Wise took specially chosen tapes, so they were able sit on the couch in Wise room and just enjoy movies.
"How did you like this one Lycaon?"
"As always great choice. It was nice mix of adventure and action, I enjoyed it greatly."
"Maybe you want to pick next movie? I was choosing previous ones that I especially like, so maybe you want to chose something you like now?"
"That's not needed, your choices are truly perfect. You always are choosing ones that others can fully enjoy, so I will trust in your tastes. I know that it will be great one."
"Thank you, alright so next one will be this."
Wise felt warm inside because of Thiren nice words and knowing that Lycaon trust in his choices.They enjoyed to the fullest their movie night eating delicious snacks and Lycaon even allowed Wise to hug his tail during soft horror one.
No matter where they went or what were they doing they always have great time during which they were able to relax from their busy life and behave more freely.
That's why it's no suprise that they made plans together for upcoming festival. Both make sure to finish their work and not take any additional ones on this time. They agreed to meet in the morning for breakfast in place chosen by Lycaon then slowly get to enjoy festival attractions.
Wise was getting ready to leave when Belle come out from her room.
"Geting ready for your date brother?" Belle poked his arm lightly and smiled warmly at him.
"It's not like this it just friendly meeting and that's all."
"Sure because all friends spend that much time together, even nights when one is curled to another one tail, what correct me if I'm wrong is said to be one of most private Thiren thing showing huge trust they have to another person."
"We may spend time like that true, but in the end we're still just friends Belle."
"Good luck then, maybe festival climate will finally make one of you confess. I will hold my fingers crossed for you brother I hope that from tomorrow I will be able to call Lycaon my brother-in-law. He isn't chicken Thiren, but if he chicken out you go get him."
"Belle you..." Wise felt warm slightly coming to his face, but took a deep breath and looked at his sister again. "Thank you for your constant support, even with your teasing I really appreciate that."
"Don't worry about this and go have nice time with your future man... I mean wolf, off you go now!"
"You too have fun on your girls day."
"Oh we definitely will, but you two really better not chicken because we will come to you two and settle it once and for all!"
"Don't joke like this Belle..."
"Who said i was joking? If it's serious matters there will be serious actions. Don't worry we will take good care of that."
"I better get going now, have nice day Belle."
"You can't run from love and our girls powers brother! We can resolve this for you two!" Belle started laughing seeing her fastly leaving brother. She looked fondly in his direction and wished him luck.

Then they went to enjoy every attractions that's caughth their attention. They was checking every stalls from food ones to game one's and they even win some prizes for each other.
They had so much fun that they didn't even noticed when it already was geting late. Lycaon proposed for them to go on rooftop to have better view on beautifully decorated with colorful lights city and light and firework show that was about to start soon. When Wise agreed Lycaon immediately took him up to his favourite spot.
"View here is really something else, thank you Lycaon for bringing me here." Said Wise slowly coming closer to edge of building to get better look around.
"I'm glad that you enjoy it, but I highly recommend to be careful near edges." After saying this Thiren came closer and protectively put his arm around gray haired man.
They admired the views untill the ending of show, in silence close to each other.
"This was really beautiful show, again thank you Lycaon."
"You're welcome, now let's go down. If you want we can check some more attractions before our meeting will come to an end.
Lycaon was getting ready to take Wise back down when gray haired man back of a little.
"Lycaon wait I want to tell you something."
"What is it that's bothering you master Proxy?"
Wise looked to the side and tried to focus on what he want to tell, which wasn't easy with his storming emotions. 'Here comes nothing I will tell him. I should at least let him take me down first though, but now it's to late for that.'
"We known each other for long now and was seeing each other for some time as well and I really enjoy your company and our meetings, I like you a lot Lycaon and I was wondering if... will you go out with me? Not like friends, but couple." Last part he add quietly and wait for Thiren reaction.
After moment of silence Wise wanted to try somehow play it off, but before he could say anything he felt strong arms around him.
"It will make me very happy to go on date with you. Honestly I wanted to ask you for the same thing when we would go back down, but I'm glad that you asked first."
Wise finally let out a breath that he didn't noticed he was holding and relaxed in to the hug.
"Lycaon?"
"Yes?"
"Can we stay here like this a little longer?"
"As long as you wish."
